Status Bar Question

[thiefmaster]

Hi. I have a menu and a status bar in my program. I found this article on the net ->

<- which showed how to make it so that when you went over items, it would update the status bar accordingly. The only problem with this code is that you have to click on the menu items to have it work correctly (eg. click on a popup menu item). This would be okay, but I have top menu items that open dialogs if you click them. Is there a way to still update the status bar when the mouse goes overtop of the menu items?

thanks in advance

You may do it on handling the message WM_MOUSEMOVE for the main window.
